Milking Time by Horatio Walker is a 2.8 x 4.8 inch drawing on paper that was produced in 1877 and features an estate stamp on the reverse side. The piece comes from the estate of Horatio Walker and is signed by Clarence Gagnon on the back. The simple pencil sketch depicts a woman sitting beneath a cow, collecting milk into a bucket. The cow quietly nibbles on grass as the maid carries out her task. Walker uses gestural lines and directional shading to portray the forms of the two subjects, quickly capturing the essence of the moment.




Walker was well-known for his pastoral themed paintings and his fondness for capturing scenes of rural life.
